Drake + Anderson

The big buzz in the New York interior design world is the merging of AD100's top interior designer and Hall of Fame inductee Jamie Drake with a former intern of his, Caleb Anderson, forming Drake + Anderson. This is a great marriage of passionate, talented design minds!

They will each finish their individual projects as they rebrand the new business. Jamie has an amazing portfolio of high profile projects and Caleb is a star on the rise. Jamie's work is known for bright color, high glamour, historical preservation, and mid century modernism. Caleb is masterful at blending the traditional and the modern with a curator's eye. The new firm will move forward melding the men's styles as they move into the future. Caleb's interiors have been called "reverent and refreshing." In his thirty plus years in the field Jamie has been a prolific designer with furniture, rugs, bath fixture collections, and more. They each speak of their admiration for one another. The partnership will benefit as each man brings different strengths to the business while agreeing on making bold design choices with the juxtaposition of old and new and artfulness as an anchor.
